Boarding School Planning & Placement

If your local schools don’t meet your child’s needs, you may want to consider a boarding school where your child can flourish academically and socially. With hundreds of accredited boarding schools throughout the USA, Canada, and Europe, selecting the right one can be daunting. Few parents have the resources needed to identify the best choices.

That's where the specialty services of Judi Robinovitz Associates play a pivotal role. Judi and her staff of educational consultants offer a high level of personalized counseling to students and families, helping them choose and apply to the “best fit” boarding schools.

Because Judi travels across the county to visit several boarding schools every year – meeting with admission officers and students, touring campuses, and learning about the current campus culture – her personal insight provides a family with a much deeper understanding of each school than a boarding-school viewbook or website can convey. And her personal relationships with admission directors facilitate her presentation and discussion of a student before submission of an application.

A Full Range of Services

Judi’s expertise puts a student ahead of the pack with cutting-edge advice on how to stand out during the boarding-school application process. Her counseling includes a full range of services:

Consultations with and support for the family throughout the planning process, and for the entire term of placement in boarding school

Identifying the boarding schools where the student will be most successful in terms of academics, special interest activities, personal growth, religion, location, and student body size

Creating a profile of the student for presentation to boarding-school admission directors for pre-screening, thus expediting a successful placement

Providing the student and parents with information about each selected boarding school

Preparing a student and parents to make the most of boarding-school visits and interviews; debriefing after school visits

Assistance with application essays (from brainstorming ideas to editorial reviews of each draft and the final essays)

Thorough boarding-school application review

Communicating with school admission directors throughout the planning and application process

Review of student’s academic progress throughout the term of placement, on a schedule consistent with the boarding school’s policies for consultant communications

Remaining in the "loop" with the family and boarding school throughout the term of placement (e.g., advocating for the student, working as part of a team to resolve problems that may arise)
